X_x I tried to give her those trendy bleached pants, but then I thought they just looked weird and then I realized those pants look weird too so I decided to leave it alone.

Why am I not saying the name? ... meh... I'm so sick of it.... o__- if you don't already know, just image the one girl name you just can't stand... the one you've never met a person with that name you liked.... everyone has one... so far 2 people have said its the same name for them as it is for me.

O_O When there is someone I hate... I give them stick figure death. But.... good use of color. ^_^ They all seem to fit well together. T___T And yes.... jeans are hard enough to do without trying to mimic trendy jeans when we all know that trendy=insane.

o_o lately I've become POSITIVELY morbid about how much I think I want to study from people in real life so I can use it in stories and drawnings. So things like mean people I just want to take note of and remember so I can make them into something later. My roommate is also a subject of mine now. Can't do that with stickfigure death so much. Thats more of a therapy thing.

O_x You could turn her into the supervillian's incompetent sidekick. Its actually not uncommon for story makers to base at lease some characters off of existing people. It helps you to distance yourself from the characters. I mean, have them make decisions that you would not make.

You know if I didn't already know what name you were referring to I would bug you forever to let me know. XD But you already told me way back, so.. And I agree, most people I know with that name haven't been overly friendly, I guess. Or they have and that was the damn problem. Sorry about the mini-rant there.

Is probably a smart idea to get a feeling for what you character looks like before she becomes your roommate.. with any luck your roommate is going to change your view of THE name completely, though. at least I hope so for your sake, and that in a good sense too. o_o as for sense, guess what, I make none!

I really like her hair! XD it reminds me of mine!

o_O other than the hair she looks JUST like a friend of mine though. which is a tad bit disturbing in an interesting way. o_o;; hm.. I can definately see what kind of person that'd make your character, though. XP

o_o I'll tell anyone who asked, but at the same time >_> I thought it might be a way to add to my list of people who dislike that name without them already having the name in their head. o___o annnnd your experience sounds like mine... O___O Its the name I tells ya!

x__x yep. Heres hoping that I'll want to rename my character after meeting my roommate. >__< the ONE character I was ever certain about a name...

^_^ you have very pretty hair then!

o__x Well, thats good! If I ever get around to making the comic / writing the story, I'd like people to have her remind them of someone else.

Yeh... Shouldn't destroy the name for them if they LIKE it.
o_o it might very well BE the name. I've noticed quite a number of cases when people sharing the same name remind me a whole lot of each other. o_o Now, do parents subconciously chose names because they know what will fit, or do kids adapt to their name? :s We will perhaps never knooow.

Characters and names... I have this one character whom I keep (and some other characters of mine) keep giving nicknames... He hates all of them. But it's too much fun. @_@ One day I'll change his name to one of his nicknames... and being a character he can't do anything about it! hah!

^^ Thank you. <3

Oh? ^^ Well, that helps them connect, I suppose, so yeah. ^^ I can understand that.

Hmm... XD Maybe I can write a pyschology paper on that or something? Run some tests maybe.

O_o its hard to name a character. >_> really helps me understand why new parents have such a hard time with names. o_o unfortunatly you can't always name them after someone if you are planning to make them a bad character.
x_x oh oh! I was reading a book that suggested vampires used all sorts of nicknames over time. o_o perhaps thats why mr.purplehair's name is never pinned down?

exactly. I like stories best when I find characters I can recognize. Makes it more believable I think.
